Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Noah Webster, a pivotal figure in American education and lexicography, transformed the way children learned to read and write in the late 18th century. His textbooks replaced imported English primers, promoting a uniquely American English through innovative spelling changes. By democratizing language education, he played a crucial role in shaping American identity and communication. His influence is so profound that it even inspired George Bernard Shaw's famous remark about the linguistic divide between England and America.
